 Developing an early foundation from intensive training with members of ren

 ide.  These included the Parliament of World Religions in Capetown\, South
  Africa and the United Nations headquarters in New York.\n\nMarco Lienhard
  studied the Shakuhachi under Master Katsuya Yokoyama\, quickly mastering 
 the instrument and becoming a virtuoso solo artist. From Carnegie Hall\, L
 incoln Center\, Boston Symphony Hall\, Osaka Castle Hall\, Hong Kong Cultu
 ral Center\, and Suntory Hall in Tokyo\, the demand for his soulful sound 
 and distinct musicality has led to over 3\,000 performances worldwide.\n\n
 Hidesomi Bando trained under the care of headmaster Bando Mitsugoro IX for
  4 years\, while attending Keio University in Tokyo\, Japan.  Known for he
 r meticulous technical control and expressive purity\, she aspires to crea
 te a bridge of unity between all cultures through Nihon Buyo\, or Japanese
  traditional dance.\n\nThe 80 member ensemble of Makoto Taiko is a dedicat
 ion to the art of Taiko as a means of expression and inspiration to player
 s and audience members alike.  Uniting passion\, precision\, and spirit\,
